Tips & Tricks
If using a microwave to melt your chocolate, microwave in 30-second intervals. Stir the chocolate with a spatula in between each 30-second cooking time until all the chocolate has melted.
Wait for the brownies to be fully cooled before cutting into squares, if you try and cut them when warm they can stick to your knife and break.
The brownies with last for about 4 to 5 days in an airtight container or cake tin at room temperature.
